chances of success are directly proportional to the degree of pleasure you
desire from what you do. If you are in a job you hate, face the fact squarely
and get out." |

for positions that are better aligned with my personal skills and preferred
profession. Now I know that I can choose my future, do something that I enjoy,

"Never
continue in a job you don't enjoy. If you're happy in what you're doing, you'll
like yourself, you'll have inner peace. And if you have that, along with
physical health, you will have had more success than you could possibly have
imagined."

The Trusted Advocate |
|
 |
|
 |
|
The sales environment has
been forever altered by e-commerce and price centered commodities.
Competition has become stiffer, and quotas have become higher. The
demand for performance has created brutal pressure in a lonely
profession, and increasing the number of cold calls is not enough to
survive. Success requires closing a higher percentage of opportunities
and growing existing business. But how do you achieve such lofty goals?
Designed to revitalize sales
professionals, The Trusted Advocate is perfect for
managers, coaches, and trainers to help rapidly accelerate individual or
group performance. Use your strengths as your competitive edge, enjoy
your profession, and advance in your career! |

My
Resume.
1. My first job was working
in an Orange Juice factory, but I got canned. I couldn't concentrate.
2. Then I worked in the
woods as a Lumberjack, but I just couldn't hack it, so they gave me the ax.
3. After that, I tried to be a Tailor, but I
just wasn't suited for it - mainly because it was a sew-sew job.
4. Next, I tried working in a Muffler
Factory, but that was too exhausting.
5. Then, I tried to be a Chef - figured it
would add a little spice to my life, but I just didn't have the thyme.
6. I attempted to be a Deli
Worker, but any way I sliced it I couldn't cut the mustard.
7. My best job was a
Musician, but eventually I found I wasn't noteworthy.
8. I studied a long time to become a Doctor,
but I didn't have any patience.
9. Next, was a job in a Shoe Factory. I tried
but I just didn't fit in.
10. I became a Professional
Fisherman, but discovered that I couldn't live on my net income.
11. I managed to get a good
job working for a Pool Maintenance Company, but the work was just too
draining.
12. So then I got a job in a Workout Center,
but they said I wasn't fit for the job.
13. After many years of trying to find steady
work, I finally got a job as a Historian - until I realized there was no
future in it.
14. My last job was working in Starbucks, but
I had to quit because it was always the same old grind.
15. SO, I TRIED RETIREMENT
AND FOUND THAT I'M PERFECT FOR THE JOB!
LIFE
IS GOOD!!

Without ambition one starts nothing. Without work one finishes nothing. The
prize will not be sent to you. You have to win it. The man who knows how will
always have a job. The man who also knows why will always be his boss. As to
methods there may be a million and then some, but principles are few. The man
who grasps principles can successfully select his own methods. The man who tries
methods, ignoring principles, is sure to have trouble.
